THE SCHOOL MONIES.
Ouachita Telegraph.

In running down Mr.. Rntland's so
per centnm onslaught upon the school
monies of the Stat" the Telegraph is
not actuated bv any desire to make
political capital, to persecute or to do
any body an Injustice. 1t believes and
knows that wrong has been and is
being done and if is attempting to stop
the wrong and recover the money for
the schools that has been wrongfully
and illegally paid to Mr. Rutland
Somebody is resp0r Sible for the wrong
let the responsibility fall where it
NAV.
4 great deal has already been said
npon the subject, the matter has
been called to the attention of the
proper officials and they know their
duty and should proceed to do it
immediately without fear or favor
The only thing, then remaining TO be
done is To fix the responsibility and to
hold those responsible to a strict ac-
conntabiIity both before the courts and
the people.
A majority of the administration
papers affect to believe and argue that
there is nothing in the matter, while
the officials are attempting TO shirk
responsibility. The fact remains, as
the Telegraph has charged. that Mr..
Rutland ia collecting school monies
and charging so per centum for his
services.
The Telegraph has asked for the
facts and figures. Why are they not
forthcoming IF it is all mares nest
why do they hold the figures back I?
Let us have the figures and let the
responsibility be placed where it be-
longs and if the Telegraph has done any
man an injustice it will make ample
reparation. If any whom we have in
cluded in this disgraceful proceeding
are innocent the light and the truth
accompanied by the figures can do them
no harm.

A lady said yesterday: 8" | was in q
Turkish bathroom not long ago and
noticed the physical appearance of some
forty or fifty fashionable women-
young, middle-aged and old. Out of
that number | did not see perfect
shaped figure. Those who were young
doubtless inherited their physical def
ciencies, and were assisting to further
mar their unnatural proportions by
wearing corsets. Men do not dream
that such malformations exist among
women, but picture them from the illu-
sive idea conveyed by seeing them
dressed 10 the extreme OF fashion.
Some of these women had small waists,
others had cramped, pinched feet, and
the majority were suffering from the
t0rturing practice of tight, iacing.
None of them moved around with a
city. They were slow and sluggish in
their movements and evidently averse
to any kind of exertion beyond the
mere necessity of walking. | was sur
prised, for / thought that some women
were so strong and robust that natural
" they would escape the curse Of

after the bath [ heard young lady
next to me exclaim in conversation
with third lady, that she would not
marry Mr.. So-and-so because he was
not robust. Then in the next sentence
she said she was suffering from asthma
and was somewhat subject to hysteria.
/ turned over and gazed at the woman
who said she wouldn't marry man be-
cause he was not apparently strong.
She was pale, delicate and thin looking,

Every nation and people are such as
their religion is, whether the church
and state are legally united or not. 1t
is impossible to establish social justice
in any country. except by national law.
1t is impossible to secure just laws in
any country till true moral code is the
ruling element in that country, wheth-
er the rule is by a majority or minority.
The principal theme and effort of all
religion, whether Pagan or Christian,
has been to teach man how to escape
hell and attain heaven, instead of how
to do his duty. This order of faith and
instruction must be entirely reversed
before we can have justice, Or any king
dom of heaven on earth.
So far as we know, the effort is yet
to be made by the so-called Christian
church to teach the plain naked truth
publicly. True many ministers are
now striving in this direction, but their
utterances are too general and vague;
They make no one see clearly that he is
or would willingly he the robber; they
do not seem to see h0W the robbery is
effected, and so leave their hearers as
blind as themselves regarding the rem
edy and the imperative duties at band.
They clearly see by the effects that there
is great wrong and injustice somewhere
and manifest genuine sympathy for the
oppressed, and call out the sympathy
of their hearers; but sympathy is of no
use till lis enlightened and teaches a
just and rational remedy.-American
Liberty.
